According to West Atlanta Modern Quilt Guild, a mug rug is, â€œA small, fun to create, mini quilt that is mostly there to look pretty on your desk and soak up your drink of choiceâ€™s drips and condensation, as well as giving you full-on permission to eat some cookies, since, well, that extra space off to the side of your drink is just THERE for you to use.â€

You can Google or Pinterest ideas as well. The picture is 2 mug rugs I've made for this group!
